Accused Shiv Kumar Yadav in police custody.

A day after Delhi Police appealed people to come out with their complaints against Shiv Kumar Yadav, Uber driver accused of raping a passenger in Delhi, Nidhi Shah, the US-based woman has responded to the appeal and sought a legal opinion from the police on how to take forward her complaint against Uber.

Reports say that Delhi Police is preparing a detailed reply to assist Shah. Police is also willing to register an FIR if she lodges a complaint against the driver.

Delhi Police has approached Shah to file a complaint for the alleged indecent behaviour of Shiv Kumar Yadav, the accused in the Uber rape case, on November 26 when she had taken his cab during her India visit.

Nidhi Shah, who was in India for a week during that period, has in a series of tweets on Tuesday said that during her trip in his cab, Shiv Kumar Yadav had stared at her through the rear view mirror and smiled in a weird way.

Police contacted her on Twitter and said that she can lodge complaint with them in this connection.
